Speedomete/Odometer Question

[Bhatti, Mohammed]

Ti,

Thanks for the input.  The gauge cluster is farily is to take out, even for
me.  I'm going to pull this out with super glue in hand, and see what's
going on back there.  Hopefully, it's an easy fix.

The speedometer sensor is also used for the odometer.  If the
speedometer
works fine then the sensor is good.  The problem is likely to be
mechanical
inside your speedometer (a broken or stuck gear).
